Fantastic Family Birdwatching Tour in Salento
We were very happy with our tour with Pajareros Birdwatching Salento. As a family of four, including two children, it was a truly wonderful experience. We learned so much about the different bird species, and also gained fascinating insights into Salento and Colombia. The tour was definitely worth it. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, polite, and patient with us, which made the trip enjoyable for both adults and kids. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Birding Tour
We went on our first birding tour with Jorge and it was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable. It was an early morning, but we started with an authentic breakfast. We saw so many birds along the way. Highly recommend!

Great birdwatching tour
Had a great bird watching experience with Jorge. He knows a lot about birds and could identify pretty much every bird in the area. Without his sharp eye and hearing I couldn’t have found so many different birds. Definitely recommended!

Memorable
Jorge was our guide, we got to see several birds and since it was my first time in bird watching I learned how they differ, the months in which they migrate, and appreciate more the view in the forest and the movement of the leaves to be able to find them.

Best way to start with a new Hobbie
Jorge introduced me to bird watching in a very interesting and fun way.
Colombia is the place to watch birds and Pajareros in Salento has amazing spots to watch them

1.5 Hour Salento Bird Walk
We did a 1.5 hour walk, through Salento and into the eco park. We had a great time! We managed to see a bunch of the birds we wanted, with our guide Jorge who was great at identifying birds and pointing them out to us. Would recommend!

Great experience!
A memorable walk with Jorge who guided us around Salento at dawn. Thanks to his knowledge and the quality binoculars he rented us, we were able to observe very beautiful birds such as the blue-necked callist, the gold-faced tyrannical or the black-backed tangara. In addition, the city’s overhanging promenade offers beautiful perspectives in the rising sun.
A very successful first birding experience that makes me want to go deeper!
